Virginia native and Arkansas resident, Kerry Kinlaw, is a creative artist, poet, and author, who has been writing/performing poetry for almost two years. Kinlaw was introduced to poetry in April of 2019, at Stonington Institute, a cooccurring Rehab Clinic. He discovered the art form by chance, eventually propelling him to write his own book entitled, Greater is He. Being a victim of child abuse, and also developing an addiction for alcohol, Kinlaw was admitted to the institution to restructure, readjust, and reposition himself in his own life. When a fellow patient was preparing to leave the facility, Kinlaw felt it fitting to write him a note of encouragement for his journey. After sharing stories about one another’s stretch in the military and bonding over duty and service, he felt it only right to send his fellow Veteran off with positive words. Unbeknownst to him, this would be the spark of a future hobby, and later turned profession, for Kinlaw.
